Here's a weird UI pattern I haven't seen before. This sanitizer will keep things clean for 24 hours, so the time counts *down*.
Every time I see it, it looks like 24 hour clock showing the wrong time!

I really like pattern matching in Rust, but I find myself using it less and less.
`if let` and `let ... else` require substantially less indentation, and I often use them for Option values.
I don't miss this syntactic sugar in OCaml though. Maybe it's just because OCaml has a 2 space indent, unlike Rust's 4 space indent?
Are there any languages that have both pattern matching and statement oriented syntax?
In principle these are orthogonal, but I'm struggling to think of a language with pattern matching that isn't expression oriented.
What piece of syntax has the most different meanings?
I realised today that `as` is extremely overloaded. It can be used for aliasing imports (Python), type casts (Rust), binding pattern match variables (OCaml), type assertions (Hack) and probably many others.
